I wear my Carhartt double front pants for almost everything anymore; work, hunting, shed hunting etc.. For $40-60 bucks a pop, it will take a hell of a pant to get me to try something else. Lol Not waterproof, camo or windproof, but I bust right through Multi Flora patches shed hunting or get hung up on barbed wire and they hold up just fine. I've mostly been disappointed in the durability and price of most hunting pants I've tried. I'll be interested in what has worked for others for sure though.

Have you considered chaps? Iron cloth style chaps can be used with any style of pants. You can buy cheap fabric chaps and make them into iron cloth as a DIY project too. I tend to wear and blow my pants out in the crotch area from walking and crossing fences, no matter how much I spend on them or what they're made of. Using chaps allows me to go through pair after pair of pants without needing to replace the chaps. Something to think about anyway.

I have used the Filson Tin Cloth Chaps. I bought them originally for bird hunting and then started to use them for deer/shed hunting. Have had the same pair for over 20 years and the only fringe to them is at the bottom where I have walked on them. Oil them every year or two.

Tin cloth! Yes, this is the stuff. Not iron cloth. Sorry about calling it the wrong name. Yes, they will wear forever.

I like them, because they are easy to put on and take off, I usually just have them rolled up in the truck, and can put them on when the need arises. I do have a pair of Carhartt insulated bibs in my truck also, but those are for more if having severe cold weather or vehicle has issues away from home.

Those filson bibs look sweet, probably worth the money. Buddy has the Pnuma gear hunting pants and they seem pretty tough and they have lifetime warranty. I just wear my Duluth firehose pants when I go bird hunting and wear them at work. They’ve lasted 5-6 years so far w/ no holes yet.

Check out the L L Beams Tek upland waterproof brier pants or the Men's Upland Field Pants with GORE-TEX (25% off right now)
A little pricey but not as bad as Orvis for example. I really like the L L Beams clothing that I've tried so far and great customer service.
